Slow application with Word Automation, on Terminal Server

[Nicolas Hilaire]

Hi all,

i encounter a problem with my application running in terminal server.
This application constructs a Word document (by code) using VB
Automation. Fields are substituated by data loaded (by an unique sql
instruction) from an Oracle database.

Slowness appears when :
- application is running on the terminal server and the database is
on another server.
- application is running on a client, connected in TSE, and the
database is on another server.

BUT, slowness doesn't appear when :

- application is running on the terminal server and the database is
on THE SAME server.
- application is running on a client, connected in TSE, and the
database is THE SAME server.

Tests have been made with win2000/2003 and Office 2000/XP.

We can notice that when TSE in not activated, the construction of the
word document is fast.


Thanks in advance for any help.

Nicolas H.
